    @t3nk3n, I know that. My point is Catalyst, drivers, and features should be made fully compatible with windows server.

    Problem 1:

    The Drivers and CCC are Server Ready.

    Not so ready. To install the new version I had to delete ATI WDDM from the registry and delete Standard VGA from device manager. Looks it’s been a problem for years:

    viewtopic.php?f=6&t=398&p=8843#p8843



    Problem 2:

    The features are not, that’s why they don’t install, unless the .msi files are modified for Server.

    The features should be compatible too.

    Reason #1 – quite a few people use server OS with AMD cards.
    Reason #2 – if it is possible to edit .msi then why not to do it officially.

    Same issue 3 years later, same problem with reinstalling Catalyst and still no go for Hydra and Video Converter, as reported here:

    AMD Catalyst 11.7 WHQL is out:

    x64http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx

    x32http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-32.aspx

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    However, I did have the problem installing it after I uninstalled 11.5 WHQL via windows Control Panel. The 11.7 driver installed and worked fine but the Catalyst 11.7 application wouldn’t launch properly everytime with the message that it’s “not compatible with the current driver version“. Driver Sweeper in safe mode didn’t help.

    I then searched for the word “ATi” in the registry, and it found one entry called “ATI_WDDM …” which I deleted. Now my PC refused to boot normally, and I had to boot in safe. In the safe mode I went to Control panel/Device Manager and deleted the Standard VGA Device. Now I could boot normally and installed ATI Catalyst 11.7 successfully and it’s working fine with all the Catalyst options in place.

    One thing though, I can’t figure out how to get to work Hydravision and AMD Video Converter which both install but don’t appear in CCC, there’s no way to use them in Server R2. 🙁 It’s been an issue for long time already, so all interested users please feel free to help me report it to the Catalyst Feedback Crew:

    @rent-a-hero

    but – for a bug in .net framework 4 and gfwl – i had to format my pc. then after a clean install, i tried to install the catalyst. for my surprise, ccc dont start.

    this time, i dont have .net framework 4. is this required for ccc?

    Add the .Net Framework feature from the Server Console, and reboot. Then use web installer from Microsoft to update to .net version 4:

    in reply to: Windows 7 Cinepak Codec #51021

    How do i install the codec to be able to play iPhone videos in windows movie maker? The file C:UsersKatarinaVideosiPhone videosIMG_0600.MOV cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again.

    FIXED:

    Install the drivers using device manager after unpacking the .exe to a temp folder.

    Unpack the CCC application (sometimes in a different .exe) to a temp folder.

    %tmpfolder%PackagesAppsCCCCore-Staticccc-core-static.msi

    This is the CCC install msi. If the drivers are properly installed then this should be launchable from %systempartition%Program Files (x86)ATI TechnologiesATI.ACECore-StaticCCC.exe
    and will detect the ATI GPU.

    Working with 5770 and package “10-6_vista64_win7_64_dd” on Windows Server 2008 R2 x64

    Horray for .msi files in packed .exe’s

    [s:56awouac]…The soon to be released HP DM3 is going to come with either a dual core AMD chip (“The AMD version packs the 1.6GHz Athlon Neo X2 dual-core CPU, a 320GB hard drive [7200 rpm], and an ATI Radeon HD 3200 series GPU”) with a discrete graphics processor that allows the unit to run at full graphics output when pluged in to an AC oulet and run on integrated graphics when running on batteries.

    The Intel version of this machine has a dual core Pentium running a bit slower than the AMD version (“The Intel version, on the other hand, offers the 1.3GHz Pentium SU4100, a 500GB hard drive (7200 rpm), and an integrated GPU”) and only has integrated graphics. The only benefit I can see is that the Intel version is said to get slightly better battery life. And, for some reason I can't understand, they're pricing the Intel version $100 higher than the AMD version ($549/$649).

    Is the Intel processor really any better than the AMD? And if so, is it enough better to offset the benefits of the discrete graphics processor available in the AMD version (for $100 less)?

    These machines will be released 10-22-09 and will come pre-loaded with Windows 7[/s:56awouac]

    in reply to: Questions about WinServer 2008 #47086

    Another Q.
    Is there anything missing in server 2008 that exists in vista (in terms of included programs)? I saw the server 2008 iso today and noticed that it’s 2.7GB while the vista one is 3.9GB. Does the converter somehow adds the mising pieces of software?

    Hi KyleGoch

    I have a T60p from lenovo and sleep/hibernate works fine.
    I installed Thinkpad Power Manager driver and Power Manager software.

    It shoulds also work on your T400.

    I hope it will help you…
